What an honor!
In its Earth Day edition, National Geographic has recognized our innovative work with the Ruko Community to save endangered giraffes. The article recounts the months of creativity, grit and determination needed to float nine stranded Rothschild’s giraffe to safety on a handmade barge, across the crocodile-infested waters of Lake Baringo, Kenya.
All nine, including baby Noelle, are now safely roaming their lush new home at the Ruko Community Wildlife Conservancy, and we couldn’t be happier that the rescue went so well.
At Save Giraffes Now, we focus solely on immediate, on-the-ground projects to protect these gentle giants, who are quietly disappearing from our planet. We support rewilding, de-snaring/anti-poaching efforts, rescue centers for orphan giraffe calves, community-led projects and more.
We’re working tirelessly in 9 African countries to save these iconic, beloved creatures, but we can’t do it without you – and with only 100,000 giraffes remaining, we can’t wait.
